Description
For introductory undergraduate technology and engineering technology courses in Materials and Manufacturing processes, including Material Science and Metallurgy found in 2-year and 4-year programs.
This text introduces the current state-of-the-art technology in materials and manufacturing processes with an emphasis on the rapidly growing technologies in the plastics and aerospace industries. It takes a unique approach by presenting specific materials and manufacturing processes, then progresses into a discussion of the ways in which these materials and processes are integrated into today's functioning manufacturing industry.

Reviews / Votes
"I like your book for a survey of manufacturing processes. Most other books go into such detail that it could take two, three, or four courses to fully cover the material. It is difficult to use a book of that depth as an introduction to manufacturing; your book will do the job." - Thomas J. Beck, Texas A&M University"The text's strengths are excellent illustrations, breadth of topics, and easy-to-understand treatment." - Ramamurthy Prabhakaran, Old Dominion University
